Ultrasound-guided treatment for fatty lumps under the skin
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests a new, less invasive way to remove fatty lumps (lipomas) using ultrasound to guide a special treatment that breaks them down. It aims to reduce scarring and improve cosmetic results compared to traditional surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 60 years old.
- You have a fatty lump (lipoma) confirmed by ultrasound and biopsy.
- The lump is larger than 1 cm in size.
- The lump is on your torso, arms, legs, or neck (not on your head or face).
- You want a minimally invasive treatment with better cosmetic results.
- You are willing to participate and follow the study procedures.

This trial is testing a treatment for small, non-cancerous fatty lumps (lipomas) on the body, arms, or legs, but not on the face or neck.
This trial tests a new injection called Embella (deoxycholic acid) to treat small, stable lipomas (fatty lumps) on your trunk, arms, or legs. The goal is to see if it safely shrinks the lumps without needing surgery.
This study tests injecting cooled or warmed salt water (saline) into lipomas—harmless fatty lumps under the skin—to see if it can shrink or remove them without surgery. It's for people with a single lipoma or many, as long as they're not on the face, too big, or growing fast.
This study tests an injectable drug (Ronkyla Plus) for shrinking fatty lumps (lipomas). It may be a good option if you have one or more lipomas that have not changed in size for at least 6 months.
This study tests a new ultrasound-guided method to break up and remove benign (non-cancerous) breast lumps using sound waves, so you can avoid visible scars. It's an option for women who want an effective but less invasive treatment.
This study uses an ultrasound scan to find fatty lumps on the skin caused by insulin injections (called lipohypertrophy). It aims to help you improve blood sugar control by identifying and addressing where insulin is being injected.
